A Salina property management firm is out approximately $1,300 after thefts at two of its apartment complexes.

An employee of Jensen Properties LLC told police that on March 14 he noticed that some of the coin collection units on the washers and dryers in the facility at 415 E. Republic Avenue, had no quarters in them, Salina Police Capt. Paul Forrester said this morning . When the employee returned to check the units on Monday, quarters were missing once again.

Additionally, quarters were missing from the coin collection units in the laundry room in the company’s facility at 651 Upper Mill Heights Drive, Forrester said.

It appeared that whoever stole the quarters had somehow unlocked the units, as they were unlocked when the thefts were discovered, Forrester said.

The total amount of stolen quarters was estimated at $900.

Forrester said that a new water heater that had been delivered to the E. Republic facility and had been sitting in the hallway awaiting installation also was stolen. The water heater was valued at $400.
